Trending News: Quizzes, puzzles and brain puzzles have a fascinating fascination among people. These mind-bending challenges provide a unique blend of entertainment and brain booster. Solving a puzzle, especially a difficult one, often does not satisfy you and you are not able to solve it. But by repeating it again and again, your brain gets exercised very well. “Don’t cheat!” A Threads user posted a puzzle and asked social media users to find the total of an equation. At first glance, this may seem easy to solve, but the more you think, the tougher it becomes.
The puzzle puzzled me a lot
In the post shared by the user, he has been asked to do some calculations. Which is explained in this way. “You have to do this in your mind. Take 1,000. Add 40 to it. Now add 1,000 more. Now add 30, and 1,000. Now add 20. Now add 1,000 more. Now add 10. What will be the total?” This is a tricky question. By adding it in your mind, your answer would be 5000, but did you add it on the calculator? Surely you must have been shocked. Yes, it is coming 4100.

This puzzle has sparked debate among social media users. Some people said that the answer is “5000”, while some believe that the answer is “4100”.

It starts with TAKE 1000 which means -1000 +40 +1000 =40. +30 +1000 + 20 + 1000 = 2090 + 10 = 2100,” and claimed that the answer is neither 5000 nor 4100 but 2100.
